Answer: In contrast to normal cells, cancer cells don't stop growing and dividing, this uncontrolled cell growth results in the formation of a tumor.

Explanation: In contrast to normal cells, cancer cells don't stop growing and dividing, this uncontrolled cell growth results in the formation of a tumor. Cancer cells have more genetic changes compared to normal cells, however not all changes cause cancer, they may be a result of it

Which of these statements are accurate? Hexokinase is a type of transferase that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphoryl group fr

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

A. The conformational shift that occurs when glucose, but not water, enters the active site prevents water from hydrolyzing ATP. True

B. Hexokinase consists of two domains, or lobes, that come together when glucose and the MgATP2–MgATP2– complex are bound. True

C. Hexokinase is a type of transferase that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphoryl group from ATP to a hexose. True

Explanation:

A. Hexokinase suffers and conformational changes by binding glucose in a reaction that prevents ATP hydrolysis.

B. Hexokinase is an enzyme with two domains that function by binding to the substrate (i.e., glucose). The region linking both protein domains is responsible for the catalytic activity.

C. Hexokinase is a type of transferase that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphoryl group from ATP to a hexose. During the first stage of glycolysis, the hexokinase transfers one phosphorous group from magnesium-ATP (Mg-ATP) to one hexose molecule, such as fructose, mannose or glucose.

False statements:

- Most kinases require the presence of a monovalent metal ion cofactor to prevent ATP hydrolysis. False: In canonical kinases, conserved amino acids bind to divalent metal ions before the transference of the phosphate group to their substrates.

- Hexokinase is found in the mitochondrial membrane. False: Hexokinase is found in the cytosol.

- Hexokinase transfers the terminal phosphate of ATP to carbon 3 of glucose. False: Hexokinase catalyzes the transfer of the terminal phosphate ATP to form glucose 6-phosphate.

Explain the process of digestion abd absorption of carbohydrates.

Lostsunrise [7]

Explanation:

the food u eat will goes from oesophagus to ur stomach and then it is mixed by hcl present in your stomach that makes the medium acidic for pesin to digest protein and then bile juice from liver makes the medium alkaline and breaks the larger globules of carbohydrates for enzymes then the food goes goes to small intestine that secretes intestinal juice that converts carbohydrates into glucose

Tell how you should respond if you come upon the scene of a vehicular accident

ddd [48]

Incorporating basic life support, the first thing one should do is survey the scene. Look for any obstacles that will make the response difficult such as shattered glass, fire, etc. Second, call emergency hotline (usually it's 911 but it may differ from other countries). If you are a certified basic life support provider, then continue with the next steps. Next step would be checking the patient's airway, breathing, and circulation (ABC) by checking the if there is blocking the airway, or if the patient can breathe spontaneously, as well as the pulse. Next step would be assess if the patient as a cervical fracture as this should be handled carefully. If the patient is not breathing or has no/decreased pulse then proceed with doing CPR until help arrives.
